The Falls Cottages

Nestled deep within the rolling hills of the picturesque Balgowan Valley, lies a wonderful opportunity to rebel against the monotony of the nine to five. Resplendent in the tranquillity of renowned local farm, The Falls, a pair of self-catering cottages set the scene for a deserved reflection on the simple pleasures of life.A stone's throw from Midlands institution, Michaelhouse School; The Falls encompasses twenty-three hectares of open fields frequented by small buck, porcupine and an abundance of bird life, all going about their day amongst the manicured gardens, hospitable waterfall and river frontage that streams through a small dappled forest.Homely, yet elegant, the wood-burning fireplaces lends themselves to an air of old-world charm set amongst furniture of antique design, all the while maintaining the modern technological comforts of a select DStv bouquet, DVD player and well-equipped kitchen.Life is not made of deadlines or schedules, but rather, the warmth of memories we share with loved ones. Whether it is an appreciation of nature's bounty or a timeous sun downer on the welcoming veranda, create lasting memories with the backdrop of dreams.
